Crooked toilet

Just bought our first home. Toilet in MBA is crooked! and points toward the doorway, which puts me too close to the wall! I looks bad and I want to fix it. Do I have to completely remove the toilet to readjust it or what? Also, there is caulking around the base and it is old, "rusty" and just nasty looking. Any harm in just removing it?

Thanks, Billhart, you helped me with some other stuff (caulk). We did have a very thorough inspection report performed, and this toilet issue is for sure mostly a cosmetic thing for me. Now that I own, I'm becoming a real stickler for how things look and just want everything "right." Thanks for the details; I'm a newbie and every little bit of advice helps. You're the best!
